That's interesting, a targeted community. Is that a paid group/service?

40 years of marriage.. 12th April 2011 5:26 PM

A married couple in their early 60s was celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant.
Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table. She said, 'For being such an exemplary married couple and for being loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish.'

The wife answered, 'Oh, I want to travel around the world with my darling husband
The fairy waved her magic wand and - poof! - two tickets for the Queen Mary II appeared in her hands.

The husband thought for a moment: 'Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again. I'm sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me.

The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish.

So the fairy waved her magic wand and poof!...the husband became 92 years old.

The moral of this story:
Men who are ungrateful *******s should remember fairies are female.....

Well if you ever branch out to Warwickshire, I'll give it a go

Must admit me and Clive have toyed with the idea a few times, there certainly seems a lot of appetite for networking groups, which explains the number of them, or at least round here!

It does seem an awful lot of work though, plus you need to constantly market and promote, so hats off to you. I think I'll stick to the online world for now!

UK Hosting companies..... 12th April 2011 3:05 PM

Maybe my standards are too high? Maybe I'm just really unlucky?

But why is it that UK hosting (and I mean hosters, not shared hosting cpanel resellers) is so expensive, but the quality so hit and miss?

We've just taken out a new dedicated server with Heart Internet, less than 2 weeks in, we have our first outage, "a routing issue". Lets hope it's our last

Global Gold that hosts our forum on a VPS have had a number of outages, the latest was today.

Previously we had dedicated servers with UK Fast, holy moly, an experience I never want to go through again. Up an down like a whores drawers... We had to break contract and escape before our outages destroyed us.

Then there are our dedicated servers in the US. They can go for 2 years without any disruption, and if there is an incident anywhere near our kit, they always inform us, even when 99% of the time it has no impact, and we would be none the wiser.

Then to make rub salt into the woods, they give us Rolls Royce service, then go and make everything more than 50% cheaper than we pay in the UK!

Spoke to Rackspace UK the other week. Like for like quote to what we already have in the states,

Network 3 12th April 2011 9:44 AM

Used to be on their network, but coverage round my area was terrible, moved to T Mobile, who's reception was also terrible, and then went back to Vodaphone, who I should have stayed with in the first place!

Only moved to 3 as I got suckered by one of those sharks that calls you up and tempts you away with promises of super duper deals
